The one where I go on...and on...

I've got 400 ideas going through my head that I want to blog about. But due to my pregnancy brain, I won't be able to focus long enough to put them all down on 'paper'.

So here are some of the things going through my head before I get distracted...

• Why is it that people keep saying "Oh, you can stop trying now that you're having a boy"? Is this because boys are more 'important' to have? Does anyone ever think about the fact that some of us are just happy to have another child?
• I saw "He's Just Not That Into You" and couldn't help but think about past relationships that I could have gotten out of earlier if I had known some of this stuff! I mean, why did I bother with that loser in high school that I kept dating in college - only to realize that he wasn't that in to me.
• Am I too old to read Twilight? What does it say that I didn't mind reading it?

Okay...distracted. Chat later.

Nesting at 20 weeks? Come ON!

While this child, G-d willing, won't be here for 20 more weeks (July for those who are calendar-impaired), I'm already nesting. Or preparing when I have time.

So the room that was once my craft room is now the Boy's room. It's a light green and will be decorated in science curosity of the Tiffany Ard collection. I was lucky enough to get the follow items here, here, here and here.

These sheets seemed to fit in with the theme - and were only $5 a piece. Not bad huh? Thank you Target.


Below is the blanket I made for the boy - the front is cotton from Michael Miller and the back is minky - oh so soft. You can see a close up of this picture - see that FINE stitching? Love my machine.

And here's a bigger picture of the blanket. So yummy.

Here are the curtains that I had to finish yesterday. I'm hoping they look masculine - any thoughts???

And when was that???

Tonight I was able to hang out with some friends from college. Which was a long time ago (I graduated in '99 - so that's what? 10 years ago??).

I enjoyed seeing how little people have changed. And how much I changed since I was there. People tended to stick in the same circles that they hung out with the first time around. And we retold the same stories we lived back then...who dated what guy, what party that happened at...why we were wearing similar outfits (what WAS with overalls back then??).

I don't want to go back to the past. I'm happy I enjoyed that time, but I'm also happy it's over. I'm a different person than I was back then - but these people remember me as I was - not how I am. I wonder if they'd like the new me too??
